Yep, it's a Senate thing only. Yet, you guys are acting as if the Senate should do whatever you say.
Actually, the Senate can actually be a court and find someone guilty: it’s called impeachment, and, that said, I doubt that that applies, and I seriously doubt that a Republican-controlled Congress will even sign off on such a thing.
Impeachment is leveling charges, not conviction.

How about where were you? Who was with you?
They can't ask those, as Ford doesn't know when or where the assault allegedly occurred.
Quote:Did you know Ford? Kavanaugh? Judge? Smyth?
OK. These would at best help Kavanaugh.
Quote:Why do you think Ford would claim you were at a party that you did not attend? Did you ever go to any parties with any of these people?
Their opinions on why she might make that claim are irrelevant. They're not psychology expert witnesses.
Quote:But I have a brilliant investigative mind, and know what questions to ask.
No, you don't.
The Senate can ask anything. Including whether the witness under oath was ever at a party resembling the one Ford describes or ever at a party with Kavanaugh or Judge. You know how questions work, don't you? And that the hearing is not a court of law? It's just a freaking job interview, the main purpose of which is to determine of the nominee has any issued that disqualify them from confirmation.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
